....in the 2nd division today. Scotland's, arguably, most exciting league has thrown up a nail biting finish to the season.

All 5 games today in the 2nd division have something at stake today. For all SPL fans, that means that the outcome of the game is important. ;-)

Airdrie vs Morton : The champs (Airdrie) are presented with the trophy against Morton who need a win to have any hopes of promotion, and who led the league for most of the season.

Berwick v Arbroath : Arbroath are 2 points ahead of East Fife at the bottom. They need a win to secure safety.

Dumbarton v Alloa : Dumbarton are 4th but can still go up. they need to win and hope Hamilton and Morton slip up.

Forfar v Hamilton : Hamilton are in 2nd place and need a win to secure promotion.

Stenhousemuir v East Fife : Stenny are already relegated and want to drag East Fife down with them. East Fife need to win and hope Arbroath get beat or draw as we have the better goal difference.

C'MON THE FIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, good luck to Inverness Caledonian Thistle, Clyde, Stranrear and Stirling Albion who all have something to play for today,

I'm off to Stenhousemuir, see you all later!!

I've lost all faith in my team at the moment, fear quite a beating today! Can't quite believe we've thrown it away :(. Oh well, will be travelling through to airdrie soon, the things we do as football fans!

Gutted! Played better than we have done recently but no reward. Sang our hearts out for the whole game. Showed the players and especially the chairman how much we care for the club by staying on at the end to sing them off the park. Most of them greetin their eyes out, makes me pleased cause it means they feel guilty for throwin away this league!

Similar story here. We won but unfortunately, so did Arbroath. the large (by our standard) travelling support cheered the team off and the players came over and applauded the fans. there were a few tears too amongst the players who will be leaving.


Anyway, down but not out. We'll go down and hopefully bounce back at the first attempt.

As we sung to the Stenny fans.....

1-0 TO THE CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!
